You may have noticed. We’re a different kind of theatre company.We produce intelligent, adventurous plays that demand contemplation and spark conversation. We are known within the Bay Area and increasingly beyond for commissioning and championing the works of living American playwrights who bring new ideas, new creativity and new energy to the stage.

Our audience has noticed. Two recent productions, Choir Boy and The Oldest Boy, were extended to meet demand. Others will follow. Because people want to see outstanding plays in our intimate venue.

Yet our work extends beyond the confines of the stage. Our robust education program engages more than 8,500 youth (grades K to 12) annually – in the classroom, after school and in summer camps. We provide scholarships to kids from low-income homes and offer subsidized tickets to those who otherwise could not afford to attend live theater.

We could do none of this without your support. That’s because ticket sales and other earned revenue only cover 47% of our annual expenses. Think of it as about half a seat. We need your help to get to 100%!

We are your Marin Theatre Company! Please consider making a generous tax deductible gift today.


Summertime in New York City—a time for tourists, for bodies crammed onto sidewalks, for squashed subway cars and for stifling humidity. Those eating lunch outside on hot, hot pavement demand constant refills on water. The men who earn their livelihood replenishing drinks as fast as they can know their own thirst will always come second.Playwright Elizabeth Irwin worked for years alongside these overworked and underappreciated foundations of the service industry. Here in her own words, Elizabeth Irwin shares why she decided to tell their story, and her inspirations and aspirations for My Mañana Comes and the rest of her writing. —Maddie Gaw

What was the initial inspiration behind My Mañana Comes?

I was inspired to write this play to put the question of what a political issue like undocumented immigration actually means to people who are directly affected by it, both those who

are undocumented and those who work alongside and have relationships with them. I worked in the restaurant industry for a long time and am fortunate to be able to chronicle this story.

An Interview withPlaywright Elizabeth Irwin

D R A M AT U R GY

Elizabeth Irwin.


What makes this story important? What makes these characters so interesting to you, even though their backgrounds are so different from your own?

Instead of looking at the interests of someone like a politician around the issue of immigration, this story looks at the people it actually affects and explores the complications and nuances of their lives. These characters and this story are interesting to me because they're human - none of them are perfect and none of the conflicts exist in a clearly black and white way.

You've been a teacher in both New York City and Mexico. What attracted you to teaching?

It’s not so much an attraction as a propulsion. I believe deeply in the power of education and the relationships between teachers and students to expand the choices of students and to remove limitations. Education as a tool to erase inequality is something that keeps me up at night. (Though I’m currently working on a play about this which fortunately is giving me a healthy outlet so I can sleep more!)

The play is set in New York, but it feels very relevant to California. Is the story of undocumented immigrants in America different in different parts of the country? What does your play say about the American Dream?

I think there is a common thread which is that when one is willing to make a change as drastic as leaving behind one’s country, one’s family, everything one knows, the stakes of success are much higher. That being said, “success” can mean different things to different people and this play looks at those differences because there is no one immigrant story. I hope this play sheds light on just how challenging it is to simply survive in the U.S. We can talk about the

American Dream as something that you can achieve through hard work but we must also acknowledge the enormous amount of luck it involves and that the circumstances that one is born into have an enormous effect on whether it can be realistically achieved.

Who did you write this play for and why?

Like everything I write, this was something I couldn’t stop thinking about or talking about and eventually you get tired of just having conversations about something and then you sit down and try to make some art that can reach an audience and get people to think about things beyond their own everyday experience. This play is for everyone who cares about their fellow human and wants to understand them better. I hope this play inspires conversation, compassion, action, and/or acknowledgement of one’s privilege, depending on how it relates to an audience member.

“ These characters and this story are interesting to me because they're human - none of them are perfect and none of the conflicts exist in a clearly black and white way.”


expected to stretch a minimum wage of $8.75 an hour to live in one of the most expensive cities in the country.

For both the Bay Area and NYC, there is a discrepancy between the

income earned by full-time, minimum-wage employees and the actual cost of living in the cities where they work—and in some cases where they have lived their whole lives. In the Mission District in San Francisco, a historically working-class Latino neighborhood, gentrification has taken over at almost lightning-speed ever since newcomers employed by Silicon Valley companies moved in. Whole generations of families are being forced out,

losing the rent control they’ve relied on for years.

Harlem, the famous Manhattan neighborhood that likely still evokes images of Langston Hughes, The Apollo Theatre and a populous African-American community, has not been

In both the national and local conversation, there is an ongoing debate about raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour. The mayors of San Francisco and Oakland have already

backed successful initiatives to raise the minimum wage well above the statewide rate of $9 an hour, and are currently campaigning to raise the statewide minimum to $15 by the year 2021. For the four bussers in My Mañana Comes who live in New York City, they are

a majority-black neighborhood since 2008, which has caused both an identity and economic crisis for born-and-raised New Yorkers like Peter in My Mañana Comes. While one component of the traditional American Dream—home ownership—has long been out of grasp for working and middle class families

of all races, the more abstract concepts of home, community and heritage are being threatened by the current economic climate.

Raising the minimum wage could be an important step towards bridging this economic gap, but some industries will require even more intervention and

Primary Source:“The truth of the matter is that illegal immigrants are important to the U.S. economy, as well as vital to certain industries like agriculture … Some people claim that illegal immigrants represent an assault on our sovereignty. If this is true, then it might be the first time in world history that a country has employed its invaders. When illegal immigrants cross the border, there’s a citizen waiting to hire them and benefit in some manner from their labor.” —H.A. Goodman.

overtime, whether they are paid by the hour or the shift. In My Mañana Comes, shift pay becomes a contentious battleground.

While pursuing the American Dream is already challenging for many American citizens, it’s an even more complicated task for undocumented immigrants, whose path to citizenship can range from difficult to impossible. Because of their undocumented status, people like Jorge and Pepe in My Mañana Comes hold jobs that pay minimum wage—or less—and are more susceptible to workplace abuses and violations because they fear the repercussions of speaking out. It’s a fear that continues to dog people who have lived, worked and paid taxes in the United States for several years, people who earn enough to survive day to day but not enough to take on the considerable financial burden of applying for U.S. citizenship. The current citizenship application fee is $685, and the total cost for a green card application can be upwards of $2,000, depending upon circumstances.

restructuring to genuinely call their wages livable. The restaurant business and its previously unquestioned system of tipping has recently come under fire for a variety of reasons. Many servers and other tipped front of house employees are currently paid less than minimum wage, with the assumption being that the tips they earn per hour will more than make up for it. This does not account for slow nights or stingy customers, nor does it account for the fact that research shows that servers of color are tipped less, or that women feel compelled to put up with sexual harassment to procure good tips.

Tips are also the reason why some restaurants offer their front of house employees fixed shift pay, rather than the recommended hourly pay—a practice that has been the subject of recent lawsuits. While shift pay is not technically illegal, many restaurant employers have used shift pay as a way of avoiding paying their employees overtime. Any employee working more than 40 hours a week is entitled to

D R A M AT U R GY

For Further Consideration1) Why does coming to the United States to pursue the American Dream

still appeal to people, especially if the journey is not an easy one?

2) Do you believe that there is a correlation between low wages and low skill? If you are what you do, how do we as a society tend to view minimum-wage workers?

3) How well do you know the people working above, below and alongside you? Do you feel a sense of loyalty to them?

4) Have you ever lived in another country? What were the most challenging

aspects of living there?

Marin Theatre Company is the Bay Area’s premier mid-sized theater and the leading professional theater in the North Bay. We produce a six-show season focused on new American plays, and a four-show Family Series. We are committed to the development and production of new plays, with a comprehensive New Play Program that includes productions of world premieres, two nationally recognized annual playwriting awards and readings and workshops by the nation’s best emerging and established playwrights. Our numerous education programs serve more than 8,500 students from over 40 Bay Area schools each year. MTC strives to create intimate, powerful and emotional experiences that engage audiences to discuss new ideas and adopt a broader point of view. We believe in taking risks and inspiring people to participate in live theater, regardless of personal means. MTC celebrates the intellectual curiosity of our community, and we believe that theater is an important tool to help build empathy. MTC was founded in 1966 and is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.

MTC is a proud member of the National New Play Network, the country’s alliance of nonprofit professional theaters that champions the development, production and continued life of new plays for the American theater.
